Some tales will give you chills--like that of Rue, the unfortunate daughter of an Oregon lighthouse-keeper who even today wanders the forlorn tower's guest rooms--while others--like the friendly ghost of Dr. Justina Ford who guides visitors around her old Colorado home--prove that some phantoms still hold on to that friendly American spirit. Some are downright strange. Have you ever heard of the chocolate-loving ghost of Iowa, or Delaware's specter who can't stand sneezing? Still others are older than the USA itself, from Hawaii's Night Marchers to the ancient Sleeping Buffalo Rock of Montana (which may not be quite so asleep after all)." -- publisher's website.]]></description><link>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S218C2416410</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S218C2416410</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Alexander, Heather]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2416410218</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Spine-tingling Stories From All 50 States</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780711297364/MC.GIF&amp;client=tlcovega&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Good Luck Book]]></title><description><![CDATA[Exploring the history of the world's most practiced traditions and superstitions old and new, this eye-opening book is packed with bold original illustrations, fun facts and origin stories, shedding new light on why we do the things we do.]]></description><link>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S218C2369224</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S218C2369224</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Alexander, Heather]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2369224218</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Celebration of Global Traditions, Superstitions, and Folklore</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780744084696/MC.GIF&amp;client=tlcovega&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dr. Mae Jemison]]></title><description><![CDATA["Mae Jemison is the first African American woman to travel to space.
